It helps that I know and respect my own limits on when I need to withdraw to a quiet space and zone out for a while. I've definitely still screwed some things up especially when I'm a little tired or overwhelmed, but hoping I've avoided any really bad mistakes or causing deadly offence!

1. One day a week of social and sensory withdrawal
2. Drink loads of water at any one time cos who knows when you'll next remember
3. Make yourself exercise with a great gym playlist
4. Don't fear the medieval sleep pattern (4 hours sleep/2 hours awake/4 hours sleep)
